THE GATHERING
“His grace is bigger than your sin...”

We will reach out with the spirit of revival to the lost, unchurched all those who have been hurt by church, and teach them about the grace of God and love of God, so they can show forth the Love of Christ to the community.

Hebrews 7:4-6
Now pause and consider how great this man was to whom Abraham, the patriarch, gave a tenth of the spoils. It is true that those descendants of Levi who are charged with the priestly office are commanded in the Law to collect tithes from the people-which means, from their kinsman-though these have descended from Abraham. But this person {Melchizedek} who is not from their Levitical ancestry received tithes from Abraham and blessed him who possessed the promises {of God}.
